sorry for sounding really dumb but why use vector art instead of just importing an image for a tee shirt image.
are the any advantage to these.
i have some vector art and load into flexi and it seems to outline ready for countour cut but cannot get to cut all internal bits just a block image.
any advice on this would be very appreciated.

Are you sure it is a vector and not a jpg?

Vector art is ideal for printing. Since the art is made from a series of mathematical curves it will print very crisply even when resized. For instance, one can print a vector logo on a small sheet of copy paper, and then enlarge the same vector logo to billboard size and keep the same crisp quality. A low-resolution raster graphic would blur or pixelate excessively if it were enlarged from business card size to billboard size. (The precise resolution of a raster graphic necessary for high-quality results depends on the viewing distance; e.g., a billboard may still appear to be of high quality even at low resolution if the viewing distance is large enough.)

Which Flexi have you got bud?
It costs about 3k ISTR and comes with a tutorial DVD , doesn't it cover the cutting trace options?
